peachie -

if you knew the history of this cart path you would know 1] there was no trespass as the assisted living facility and mr. brown went out of their way to redirect the path when construction of harbor chase began; 2] thus, crossing the land was done with permission = no trespassing; 3] irritation does not stem from a feeling of privelege but from the unannounced loss of a 20 yr crossing upon which residents had come to rely.

where does your info that the path was only to allow access to medical offices come from? if that was so, why is it that access has been lost now rather than having left the area accessible and walling off the area around the offices?

on what info do you base your belief that spruce creek residents will shortly be allowed to cross 441/27?

what liability/implications does the villages have if people drove the cart path not on their property? as mentioned before, the owner of that property facilitated the use of his land for travellers...he had no fear of liability apparently. and he has told a poster here that he had NOTHING to do with the building of the wall. [see previous post] so your statement that he brought this upon us does not seem to be correct.

the villages is not an 'enclosed community' nor a gated community; roads are public and anyone can push a button to get a gate to raise...not to mention that the griffin ave gate to the historic side does not even have a gate.

you are, however, correct that the problem does not start/end with the historic destrict - others from throughout the villages used that access point and are also impacted adversely.
